(I hope they don't mind me quoting their posts!) Be seeing you, Bill - ---------------------------------------- From what I know, they only had one official record, which was the e.p. entitled "The Fun Things". It had a cover with a silohuette picture of the four members with "Fun Things" across their chests. The 4 tracks on it are "When The Birdmen Fly", "I Ain't Got Time Enough For Love", "Lipstick", and "Savage". Per Ian, there were only 500 of them pressed, and they cost a bloody fortune now. The single on the French Sonics label is a bootleg, although it's a nice one. It takes only the "Lipstick" and "Savage" cuts. Why they didn't do the whole ep, or barring that, at least include "When The Birdmen Fly", which is for my money the best of the four tracks, is beyond me. In the Prehistoric Sounds article, Brad says that the whole ep was bootlegged in Canada with the cover in grey instead of black. Sonics also released several other similar boots, including the Eastern Dark's first Waterfront single and a couple of Screaming Tribesmen singles. All have different sleeves from the Aussie releases. "When The Birdmen Fly" also appeared on a bootleg lp of rare Australian classics; I'm not where I can get at my lps right now, so I can't recall which one...there's one called "Where Birdmen Flew", and I think that's the one that has the cut. There's another called "It Happened But Nobody Noticed". Both these are great records with a batch of really rare tracks by essential old Aussie bands. Somebody mentioned the Aliens as a pre-cursor to the Fun Things...they were active in 1978-79 and included Brad and Murray Shepherd and John Hartley. In between them and the Fun Things was a band called the Phantom Agents, who included the Shepherds, Graeme Beavis, and Mark Lock (future Swedish Rhythm Kings and then Died Pretty bassist). Later in 1979, Hartley came back and replaced Lock, and that became the Fun Things. (This is from the Birdman/Hitmen/Died Pretty/etc/etc family tree in Harry Butler's DNA #49 from APril, 1986. He says that he had an article about the Fun Things and Aliens in DNA #35, but I don't have that issue.) After the Fun Things, the Aliens were revived with the original lineup during 1980. This didn't last long, and Brad joined the 31st for a short period in late summer of 1980. His next move was to the Hitmen through late 1982, at which time he joined the Hoodoo Gurus. While in the Hitmen he also found time to play with Super K in the summer of 1982. Murray Shepherd and John Hartley were part of the original Screaming Tribesmen along with Ron Peno and Mick Medew. The played with the Tribesmen from Oct 1981 until June of 1984, with a breakduring the second half of 1983 while Medew played in a band called Wolfgang. MacFarlane asked Shepherd about Dave Laing's interest in re-issuing the Fun Things ep on Dog Meat in his interview, and Brad sad "Nah, as long as I still find them (the songs) as offensive as I do now, there's no way on earth that record is gonna be reprinted." Rob Younger has also said that he doesn't like "Waiting World"/"Face A New God", and I think those are two absolutely great songs. At least they did get reissued, although the quantity isn't anywhere near adequate. Hope this helps. Steve Gardner >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the fun things were 'bullet' brad sheppard's band in brisbane who released one four track ep in 1980. a one time pressing of 500, two of the songs, 'lipstick' and 'savage' were reissued on 45 by sonics records in france in 1986 (sonics was also licensing some product from citadel at the time, like the screaming tribesmen and the new christs). the other two tracks, 'let the birdmen fly' and 'time enough for love' appeared on the bootleg lp 'australian underground' that came out around the same time. the entire ep was bootlegged in canada a couple years back. all four songs feature ridiculously over the top guitar work courtesy of brad with plenty of sneering vocals and macho-man type sentiments. i'd love to get my hands on an original if anyone happens to possess an extra copy lying about.... roger mah ==================================================================== This message is from the Bomp Mailing List.

All I can say is I interviewed Dick a couple of years ago, and he was plenty cool to me. Sure, he talked about himself, and it was hard to get a word in edgewise, and he can come off as a bit of an egomaniac, but I mean, hell...he's Dick Dale! I mean, I guess I was somewhat starstruck in that I couldn't believe I was talking to him. He did not refer to himself as "the godfather of heavy metal," though. In a related note, i picked up that Phantom Surfers "Survival of the Fattest" EP with the fake Dick Dale interview on it, and it is a somewhat close (although a little exagerated) spoof of Dale, but you can tell it's not him, just some guy doing a good imitation. Still, Buck Ormsby of the Wailers still holds the title of being "a complete dick" to us about the Wailers thing in Cryptic Tymes #5. What a jerk that guy can be. Oh, and the Droogs are coming up on a close second for being complete liars about themselves in our supposed "complete Droogs story" in DTP #1. Email us if you want the scoop.

You're right about those Murder Punk CDs - they're the best punk comps to come out since the good editions of Killed By Death. Get 'em now. To my knowledge, Fun Things put out only two 7"s in their lifespan - - "When The Birdmen Fly b/w (I Ain't Got) Time Enough For Love" and "Lipstick b/w Savage". The latter single is pretty hard to find, but not _extremely_ rare... but good luck finding "Time Enough For Love" at an affordable price unless you're one of these $100 single collectin' types. Teengenerate and the Vikings covered "Savage," and the Devil Dogs did "Time Enough For Love." My band the Stallions also used to cover "Savage" live. I'm sure that other groups have as well. All 4 of their songs are awesome classic snotty punk. Great mean-spirited lyrics, great vocals, nasty guitar. Long live the Fun Things!

I'll see if we can get a show down in Springfield with the Aquavelvets sometime. Playing St. Louis would be great, but I'd have to check with the other guys to see if it's cool with them. May 18 is a Sunday night, and may be kinda iffy because most of the band has to get up the next morning and go to work. I'll check it out, though. We're playing with the Hentchmen, Oblivians, and Dirt Bombs Friday, May 16 at the Gallery in Normal, by the way. For anybody else that is considering making the New Bomb Turks show, it starts at 7:30 and it costs $5 at the door. Anybody with a soundcard/speakers should stay up and listen to kopper's show, "the wayback machine," out of St. Louis. I listen every week now, and it's frickin' cool. Monday nights, 12-2AM central time. - -T.J. - --------------------------------------------------------- Get Your *Web-Based* Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com - --------------------------------------------------------- ==================================================================== This message is from the Bomp Mailing List.

Can anyone confirm this? Yep. It's true. Not so sure about the Rifles cover, but silverchair (Australia's biggest embarrasment since Jimmy Barnes), certainly have covered Birdman's "New Race". Dunno if it appears on any of their records but they apparently do it live... Brendan ==================================================================== This message is from the Bomp Mailing List.
